[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] griff2006:
Hi all. Bad news for a first post. I've been reading and reading and researching to get a better understanding, as the most experience I've had with altering phone software is modding a Samsung Blackjack 2 for awhile.

I have the US AT&T HTC Tilt 2 (Rhodium). I will be as specific as possible - I cannot access the internet (no web access, no email access, etc.) I can send and receive sms messages and send and receive phone calls. The strange thing is I can send and receive mms messages (I thought they used 3G?)

Here's the specifics BEFORE I had the problem:

WinMo 6.5, latest framework, no mods of any sort. No problems of any kind.

AFTER:

I installed the HARDspl with the hopes of soon putting a ROM on my phone (I liked what you folks have to offer). I installed Opera Mobile 10, set it as my default, installed cleanRAM, ran it twice. I installed LockDevice. I installed mobilematt's Crystal Clock, and an HDWALL cab. I did the three background regedits to get the HDWALL to work properly by using the Mobile Registry Editor.

I properly soft reset and restarted along the way as prompted. I have no other extra programs that weren't mentioned.

The error message told me it couldn't connect, with the option of checking my settings or dismissing the error. It told me to reset my device specific to my manufacturer... etc.

---------------------

FUNNY ENOUGH, I just restarted the phone to try again... and it worked. The error is not there, and I can access the internet on IE and Opera 10, check my email, etc.

A FLUKE?

Did you just get the phone? When I got mine I had the same problem, I upgraded from a Tilt to a Tilt2 and I had to get a new sims card, my sister also had the same problem when she upgraded to the ATT Fuze from the Pantec matrix, everything worked but no 3g internet connection

Anyone can help please, i don't know it's dead / stuck pixels on my screen (refer attachment). On the area of defection, sometime it will become small area and sometime it will grow to bigger area. On the screenshot, i'm running the "jscreenfix", but after almost 2 hours running, it remain the same with no changes. Please suggest any other method to fix other than replace a new screen since my topaz was already over the warranty period.

There is a way to get out of your contract with no ETF that isn't widely known

-Contract Transfer

Use a site like http://www.celltradeusa.com/ or something similar.

It's easier than trying to find a loop hole and it lets you get out of your contract without having to pay the ETF, all you have to pay is a $19.99 fee to list your contract.

You don't have to put your phone up with the contract if you don't want to, if you do then you can add a price for it or just give it away.

http://www.celltradeusa.com/faq/

I used this process a year ago to get into a sprint contract without having to pay activation fees or anything, I simply transfered ownership of the plan, picked a plan to fit me, and started paying monthly.

Do you take Monopoly Money? :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrono:
It really does work, it just puts you in contact with someone who wants to take over your contract. You don't have to go through them once you have someone to take it over, it can all be done through sprint.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fixter:
But wait a moment. If you sell your cellphone like the HTC Evo for 500 on Ebay you can cancel for 200 bucks and still get 300 bucks extra minus Ebay fees and such but you get 250 still so yeah. Thats silly.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrianDigital:
Yes this website does work, I used it to get onto someone's sero plan. Also sprint annually makes changes to their contract sometime after new years. Which allows you to get out off contract
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilverZero:
Contract transfers are very common. Go on Craigslist and see how many people are trying to get somebody to take over their Clearwire account. That's how I got out of my contract with that joke of a service provider.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wasd321:
ok let me get this straight

For $20 I can sell my contract to someone else,i don't have to pay the $200 eft, my name is no longer on that contract and I get to keep my evo!? Sounds too good to be true.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sporkman:
why would i want out of my contract ? for 4 phones unlimited everything i pay 160 a month

At&t and Verizon cant match that
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrianDigital:
can i get your discount?:D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sablesurfer:
And what good is your Evo without a contract? Can use it on any one else's service can you? Verizon is different frequency? (or will it work?) But they are pricey anyway.

Dang I should have sold my unlimited AT&T account!!! I actually joked about that cause it was a great idea and whomever would not have had to do the limited plans. (with 1500 rollovers too!!!)

Hurt to let that go.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wasd321:
cuz i like the phone and the community but dont care much for cell phone companys and thier silly contracts
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilverZero:
Unless you know somebody at Verizon that can get you in, they won't activate it. Some people say you can use some of the smaller providers, but that will vary. But, hey, you can use it for everything else besides phone and data. Like... camera?

Good to know, thanks mrono, curious what contract terms you selected, were you able to get deeper discounts as a Get In member or does Sprint verify any discount eligibility post transfer?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phatmanxxl:
I did it with US Cellular, actually the salesman suggested it. I transferred my account to my baby mamas name and she got to use my phone ( she wanted my blackberry but didn't want to pay for one) it was a win win for me.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] midnightmaraude:
I have a free way:

Found this out by accident with at&t and recently did it twice more through verizon. Look at their coverage map ahead of time and find an area a good distance away that has zero coverage. Find a street in the town where the void is located. Get your story straight ahead of time. The first time I really did move into a spot that had no coverage. The other times I wanted out I just made up an excuse that I was moving due to work. Ask them if there is coverage. They will check and tell you no. Act disappointed and ask what your options are then. They will let you close your account with no ETF. Downside is you won't be able to port over your number though.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radar5:
this site has been around for a while so it's definitely legit. There are usually a number of SERO accounts up on it. Only downside is you lose your number if you care about that. Sometimes it seems like I'm the only one attached to my cell phone number.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acheslow:
I was thinking of doing this to move from AT&T to T-Mobile but I wasn't sure what would happen to the contracts on the 3 lines of my family plan. I was told that I could transfer each line on my family plan separately to 3 different people.

The AT&T rep told me that after I transfered my accounts, each person taking over the line would have a month-to-month with no contract and could cancel at any time without paying an ETF. This sounded completely wrong to me so I called back later and a different rep told me the same thing.

I was sure the person taking over my account would be committed to the remainder of my original contract. Does it make any sense to anyone that they'd be able to cancel immediately without paying an ETF? Could it have something to do with how long I've been with AT&T or that I have a business premiere account?

Thanks,

Alan

P.S. Oops, sorry I just realized I posted this in a forum for a phone that's not on AT&T. Would still appreciate any info anyone has, thanks.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leebo:
How do you get away with that??? I have only two phones on my account and I pay $160 unlimited everything.

I thought each extra phone was another $10 or $20??? four should be $200.:confused:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdh10475:
To get on a Sero plan now you have to have an employees ELID before all you needed was the employees email. I guess sprint got wise to it and now Sprint sends the employee an email stating they referred someone to the Sero plan. Customers would just get a business card from a sales rep wich had the reps email than go to the Sero website and activate like that employee referred them. Not that big of a deal now Sero plans are not that good anymore - probably because of the customers that were getting the plan without being referred.

The Droid X version would be great... but I it can be even forced to work on the EVO, since I'm sure the resolutions are different.

+5 I to would really like to have the SWYPE version from the droid x with the mic button!! The funny part is that the droid x has already been dumped and what not so how hard is it to to get it to work an put into an .apk file?? I wish I knew how or I'd do it lol... but it's already been done with there muti-touch kb and other ports have come from the new Galaxy S phones of different apps!!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Cal3b:
i have a droid x at work, ill see if there is a way to pull swype off it. i already got NFSShift off it, but it doesnt run right on the evo you cant see anything :(
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Cal3b:
Ok I have it, I'll upload it when I get home. Some work will have to be done though, I tried installing it and it keeps crashing. Maybe we can just use the microphone button from it.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Impulses:
Someone had uploaded it already somewhere, I think maybe over at the androidforum boards... But it wasn't right on the boards, it was on a Moto Droid downloads page. I remember I saved the link to download it later but before I got the chance they had taken it down and listed it as "expired"... I dunno if the phone shipped with a version that expired shortly thereafter or what, I'd imagine it'd have to be replaced w/an updated version anyway.

I'd love to have this, lack of a voice input button is the only flaw I see in Swype (other than landscape typing, but Swype's just meant for vertical one-hand operation imo)... From what I understand they haven't officially implemented it across all devices because pressing the voice command button in certain text fields within the OS would cause an error, but it can't be that hard to adjust this.

They already do some other context-sensitive adjustments (like no spaces on the URL address bar or a browser).

ok here is swype for the Droid X, like i said if you try and install right now it doesnt work at all.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Impulses:
Bummer, guess that might be why DroidLife took it down from their download page... Anyone know if the voice command button on the Droid X is present in all text fields or just certain fields? Supposedly that was the holdup for implementing it across the board (hitting voice command in certain fields would cause errors), if they've fixed it for one phone they should've had a beta w/it for the rest of 'em by now! Hrm...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Cal3b:

Was anyone ever able to get the Droid X Swype version installed on the EVO?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Eazail70x7:
Maybe once the Epic 4G is release, that version of swype can be ported to the Evo? It is exactly like the Droid X and has the voice button next to the enter key. The resolution on the Epic is the same as the EVO

You might want to try this version of Swype as it has the voice speech button as well as the same resolution as the Evo
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Psosmith82:
It installs fine but just constantly force closes. I think its because were on 2.2 android, and the voice feature changed it 2.2 So, unless somebody fixes it, the epic version does not work

Leave your screen protector on.

If you haven't taken it off yet, Don't! Just get a gel case and tuck that little tab at the top of the screen protector back and slide your case over it. The SP that comes with the phone seems to be high quality and is already been applied properly for you (Look Ma! No bubbles!).

I took mine off the second day and that was a mistake. There was barely any difference in screen quality after taking off the SP (the screen was just as awesome with it on or off). Swyping and gesturing was just as responsive as well (maybe even a little better). The only difference now is my screen is a fingerprint magnet.

Does anyone know the manufacturer of the screen protectors that come with the Vibrant?

I checked Samsung's site for SP accessories but I'm not sure if they are the same ones that come with the phone.

*Also it seems that a lot of people have said that the screen protectors that T-mobile sells are not that good and you should not waste your money. The verdict is still out on the clearfreak ones, but I'm not sure if it will be as good as the one right out of the box.
[Vibrant Accessories] Pneumatic:
I cut the tab at the top off and it lays flat now. This will work fine until my IvisibleShield arrives.
[Vibrant Accessories] teknx:
Please update us on the quality of the IvisibleShield compared to the original screen protector when it arrives. Pics would be great if possible. Thanks
[Vibrant Accessories] badaphooko01:
I can say after 24 hrs. the clearfreak is awsome, much better than the zagg was as far as visibility and texture. I don't know when it comes to protection and hope I never have to find out. But overall would recommend especially at that price.
[Vibrant Accessories] teknx:
That is really good to hear badaphooko1.

Do you Any tips and comments about the application process?

And would you say it is of the same or better quality than the screen protector that came with the Vibrant?
[Vibrant Accessories] larryccf:
do a google for martin fields screen protector installation video - all the mfgrs have install videos but the MF one had one tip that was awesome using two pcs of scotch tape as "handles" so you could position the screen protector on your phone without leaving fingerprints on the sticky side

you'll know what i mean when you see the vid
[Vibrant Accessories] down8:
The 'factory' protector isn't amazing or anything. Mine isn't even fully applied (coming up on left, bottom & top). It's been in the TMo silicone case since it left the box. It's suffice until my ClearFreeks arrives next week. The sensitivity is good, but it's not a replacement for a good screen protector.

I had to pull mine off because I was fiddling with it. It wouldn't stick all the way down at the top, and I pulled it off a little ways to get it to stick up top, and then I couldn't get it re-aligned and the sticky side started attracting hair and dirt =\
[Vibrant Accessories] teknx:
raduque, that is basically what happened to me. After reading a good review of it by badaphooko1, I went ahead and placed the order for the clearfreak screen on ebay http://item.ebay.com/300445111269

[Vibrant Accessories] sfsilicon:
Kept my stock screen protector on and cut off the tab to get it nice and flat. It looks pretty good for a "free" item (see small bubbles in the top right and bottom left). I'm debating putting a one on while this one still works. Thanks to OP for the tip.

One tip if you get any dust or lint on the sticky surface. Cut a strip of scotch tap and use it to lightly dab the sticky side or screen. The dirt will stick to the tape and it is a good way o clean the protector.
[Vibrant Accessories] Inat:
Think it's too late for me to do this. The tab got could inside my pocket and came off when I took it out, causing a bunch of lint to stick to the back. I cleaned it off as best I could with tape but there are still small particles that create bubbles when I try putting it back on. Guess I'll order the Clearfeak when the guy comes back from vacation and just go with that.
[Vibrant Accessories] Janis:
I've "cut the tab" for four phones now. It gives me time to read reviews.

I changed out from the "OEM" screen protector to Realook, and boy howdy, what a difference! If you guys aren't seeing a difference between the one that came on the phone and what you're using now, you need to check out these. I had no idea how nice the screen really is until I did this. (It was really, really easy to apply.)

Ok so is it supposed to play the droid sound when the phone is powered on? I went browsing through the system files and where the bootanimation.zip file was also a file called bootup.ogg that when clicked does the droid sound.
[Droid X General] Ryan Frawley:
It plays the sound at the end of the boot sequence, when the phone is ready to be used.
